With funds raised since 1972 the Hough Memorial Cancer Society has been involved with purchasing equipment close to Two Million Dollars for our local Hospital.  Most of these items listed below, we have been able to replace with the latest technology on a continuing basis, due to wear or upgrades.

Please help us in our current venture to raise funds for a much needed Digital Mammography Unit. It will require the whole Community and surrounding area to be involved to raise the approximate $700,000.00 required. The Williams Lake Hospital services an area of approximately 50,000 people. An average year will have 2500 to 2700 ladies use this Cancer detection unit. We want it to be the latest technology! Click HERE to learn more!

With increased usage of some equipment, replacement is required every 3 years.

 Colposcope (for Cervical Cancer)
